One way people can share web links is through social bookmarks. Social bookmarks allows you to save web addresses with specific tags that you can share with others. For instance, a Kindergarten teacher finds interactive websites students can use during center time. She saves them at a social bookmarking website and enters tags that indicate the sites are interactive for kindergarten grade level. Another teacher could search the social bookmark site for interactive and see the link to the web the first teacher posted.
